How is Buttigieg beating him by the same % that Biden and Sanders are despite having like 5% in the primary poll?

Good question, but Colorado is one of the three or so states with the most highly educated population, which tend to like Pete particularly well. It's also more wealthy than the average state, another strong indicator for Pete support. Finally, it's slightly more white, and far less black, than the average state.

[Frenchrepublican]

The state is clearly likely D. I doubt that Trump will lose by double digits but the state is no longer a swing state

[MT Treasurer]

Obviously Safe D, but it’s pretty amusing that Trump is losing by less than Gardner.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

These leads are obviously not gonna happen, but good news. State will be won anyways, since Hillary won it

[Dr. Arch]

CO is almost in Safe D territory at this point.

[cvparty]

wow is this the first poll where buttigieg doesn't do the worst against trump

[Progressive Pessimist]

And yet Bennet and Hickenlooper still call their own state "purple."

Likely D.  2020 is the last time Colorado will even remotely be up for grabs.  It'll be Safe D in 2024.  Same goes for Nevada and Virginia.

This exactly. I've been saying for a while that Colorado will be a Safe Democratic state by the mid to late 2020s. And the same is true for both Nevada and Virginia. Demographic trends are terrible for the Republicans in those three states, with young, nonwhite, and college-educated voters fueling their movement towards the Democrats.

Nevada trends do not obviously favor Democrats.  It will likely remain capable of electing Republicans statewide in favorable environments.

But those “favorable environments” would not exist if the Republican Party continues to be anti-Latino.

Virginia is already Safe D.

Perhaps, but there is no question that it will be very difficult for Republicans to carry it at the presidential level in the future. And you discount the fact that the state's Hispanic population continues to grow, and that Republicans are not doing well enough with this group as they could be.

While I think Nevada is close to being gone for Republicans, Colorado is already there.

Nevada trended R in both 2012 and 2016 and trended 5 points republican in 2018 for the house elections (only a 4 point swing to the dems).

It will be a Safe R state again in about 10 years.

Nearly spit out my drink at the last part. Thanks for the laugh, it brightened my day.

Me: *gives heavily cherry-picked evidence which ignores just about every other aspect of Nevada's recent voting patterns*
You: LOL no that’s stupid lol.

See you in 10 years when President DeSantis wins Nevada!

I'm sure Senators Angle, Heck, and Heller, as well as Governor Laxalt will all give him high-fives.

Colorado voted for the Republican nominee for President as late as 2004... so as with Virginia, it does not quite seem "Safe D". Like Virginia it never went for double-digits as did... uh, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin in 2008.

I'll agree that Colorado isn't Safe Democratic yet, but it will be by the middle of the next decade, at the rate current trends are proceeding at.
